Polymarket traders price a 97.5% implied probability of no Federal Reserve rate change at the April 28-29 FOMC meeting, reflecting post-March 18 consensus to hold the federal funds target at 3.5%-3.75% amid sticky February 2026 CPI inflation at 2.4% year-over-year and unemployment rising to 4.4%. The FOMC dot plot signals just one 25 basis point cut through year-end, balancing upgraded 2.4% GDP growth projections against core PCE expectations of 2.7%, with resilient labor data curbing easing bets. Upcoming March CPI on April 10 and nonfarm payrolls could alter trader sentiment if inflation reaccelerates or job gains weaken, influencing the market-implied rate path.
